,A;ereorel te be hie Lordship's Secretary. The - fleet i see her elw sir. Neri, _wee after having se'bt his 'it.count to. the Plane Neri called upon him aboet settlieg of it. He had ,met at Lord Leicester's table, IV%r. and Mrs.. Gardiner (the father and mother of Lady Leicester), the Marti. of Towns - heed, and the two Lady TowiWiends, in the-winter. of 1807, the marriage having . been in the month of May at that. year. The reasorie'why he believed the peragraphe to apply to his client were, that he knew yo other son tifetri English Marquis wl.obad proceed ings depeediiig , io 1) .tors' Commons ; and. also, because - he found every body whom he spoke to on ..this subject •also applied them -to the*Plaintiff. lie sidts the , e reasons, he confessed `that there were fly . iee rumours against the chat-meter of the Plaintiff, which bed,come to his knowledge. Lord Leicester linddireeted him to take the opinion of Counsel, with icseeal to the first of them upon which he could lay les hand, He was also convinced that they applied to the Plaintiff, because be himself bad been the per son who called at the Office of The Mot niug Herald about the first paragraph, which they afterveinds apologized for. . The case of the Plaintiff was then closed. • Mr. Serjeant COCKLE then rose on the part of the Defeo =tants. He said he rose with considerable con cern upon a subject, 'odious in, its own 'panne, and ~which must give pain and disgust to every man.— . His Learned Friend would have wished them to be lieve,- that the aspersions against the Charaoler of Lerd T, .ieester orie elated in the Newspaper which was conduced by the Defendants. The tad, how ever ,e, that the'. did not ; hut, as the .Plaintiff's own attorney had admitted, there*had been flying rumours against the character of that Noble Lord, before such paragiaphs ever found their vv ay into the newspaper. The paragraphs had found their way into the public papers in the usual manner, and the Proprietors had offered to take tbeir oaths that they were not the authors, and did not 'know who were. Certainly.. he was not an advocate for slander or-li centiousness in the press ; but it was evident that public papers could not be printed if the Conduttors Were put to a striet justification of the truth of every .paragraph contained in them. It they maliciously invereed • falsehoods, or lent themselves wilfully to be the: instruments of malice in others,, they should be rtsponsible as melees of those calumnies; but,, without iiny malice, thee': paragraphs found-their way. into. their papers in the e - egular course of their wide, they certainly were still respoosibl‘, but not in 'the same degree,' nor would .a jury visit them with so serious damages. It was allowed, that notwithstanding ail the evils which proceeded from the licentiouseeas of the pretis, the publication of daily newspapers, and the letting the puolic know what was going on, was of infinite advantage to the liber ties and happiness of the country. His Learned Frith(' had spoken of the earl. of Leicester and ,his wife having lived' happily together, How did heat• tempt to prove it ? Did he call a single relation, fier. vow or friend ? No : 411 the evidence -on this point was, testi his. Attorney had seen Lady Leiceater et her Lord's table near a year after the marriage, The fag was, that so far from having lived happily .toge. tiler, there was nothing perhaps in the whole_ his. tory of married lire more wretched. Three sleep less nightaw,ere all they passed together, and after that time they were never in bed, or seldom at board togetter. The Lady, io the agony of an almost broken hear:, and in spite -of female , delicacy, was obliged to reveal the wrongs she had Pilfered. She bad been obliged IQ it down at. the table of her Lord with wretches that are a disgrace to human nature,,and who ought not to be permitted to live. There was Neri, the belies - ) Secretary, Hayling, Mayfair,. and other wretches ett that deacript:on. She was soon banished from his house by such conduct. When he was at Glouces ter-place, she used to be at Paddington, and when was at .Paddington, she eatne to Gloucester-place. 7 he Noble Lord had brought forward but one wit tiese, who knew not hipg of the. matter. How came • it that lie brought forward no relative, no friend of rank and fashion equal to his own, none of fiis ju venile friends, none of the elders of the College in .which he was educated, to support hischaraCter ?Uri this subjea there was a gaping chasm, end it . was thought proper to preserve a profound silence. Ile, like other gentlemen of fortune, tratelled in his youth, but was accompanied by this Italian, Neri, who had been called his Secretary. This man he had kept in a.mest expenae mariner. When Neri married s although he had not a shilling of his' own, and did not get a shilling with his wife, yet they took 11 house, ,at a rent of 1501. per annum, and Neri lived mute with his Lordship than nuclei his own roof. Mr, BEST appealed to his Lordship whether this linc of `deNuce vim to be endured. If it was, it would be in the pow er,of any Defendant to destroy the Charader of any Plaintiff, by. a story that he could , not be iveparcd to answer. 611 JAMES MANSFIELD thought the lx-.1-ned Set. , 3e'ant 'sbOeid be pertnitied to proceed in his Statt. , Meat, Mr. Serjeant Coertut said, it was absolutely ne cessary for .him w snake this statement, to prove that what had been stated by his Learned Ymend • (Mr. Serjeant Best) as an aggravation of the ma lice, was not true. It. was•also his duty to prove that Abase flying tumours aga i nst t h e c b araaer of Lord Leicester were so generally heard of, that. his Lordship's oharaaer had not, , suffered ,'hy the paragraphs, to ,the extent that had been sta‘ed, as he might perhaps drew that Lis Lordship's eltaniCtor was previously as bad its this ,respeaas any tnau's could bei who was not aetually convicted -• Of the crime. if this were.the case, it must most . materially alter the damages. As to the observation which had been made of the ditlictaryiti morn% a - mat :iv smutty who had been cliarge4l . 4iiig,stich ail he:believed.tbat hte .LortlOlip tnigl i ti, what ever were the damages,„continuc to the snire respea, io that sort of company , s‘4,itli winch he had long ussoe . !ateti I and that whatever, the damages might be, that, they would, not restore Intik to any sort of society winch birth and rank in lite ap. ,:,:peared: to entitle him to. -felt -no manner of &alb , . bat that in the consideration of (14tuiles, the Jury_ would, pay cou'iderable Atteptiuil to those cit . - • .caiiistariCes wt) (.111 his duly to prove. Chilli: l [lC Arnold '4 as the first witness called. An • oi.j.ecti , :ai was made tov her e n Xatnination, on ,the LONDON: Pribted by 10 At the SUN-01- . . ground That it did not go totally to establish the fact; this was overruled, as it went to a in'oigation of da tnages. The witness admitted,. that she lived with Lord and Lady Leicester at their marriage ;- that they slept together only three or four nights irrt mediately after it ; that they sometimes lived in th same house, but that generally his Lordship resided in 'Westboorne•plaCe, Paddington, and Cady Leienster; in Gloucester-place. She had seen Hay• ling„ Neri, and Play fair, at his Lordship's ; they_ all . dided there ; Hitylint Sometimes slept there. Her master and mistress went to the country in Au gust; his Lordship returned from it in a day or two; her Ladyship remained till Novetnber. Shi had seen the Lady Townshends at Lord Leicester's, but never saw iniy Nobleman there; except at me:ils his Lord ship generally spent his time with Hayling. . Mr. -Harraden and George Smith were the next 'Witnesses - , but their evidence was not inaterlial.- Widiain Newton was master of the Cocoanut coffee-house in 170. Neri was a waiter of his in :170 or 1793. 'ln knew no harm of Neri. Mr. Ridgeway deposed, that Neri : lodged with him eighteen .months, about ihe year '166 t . Lord Leicester . visited , him there once a week. - -Neri paid a guinea a week'for his lodging. Mr. DeneW was an auctioneer ; he sold the furni ture of the houses in Gloucester-place and in West. bourne.•Green, by Net i's direction ; he also sold the furniture of Neri's house in Baker-stre'et i'latit that was a separart concern. John Newby was cit'apel clerk of Trinity College, 'Cambridge. He knew Lord Leices!er and Neri tl ere. Neri abed more as a:compannit than a ser vant there. Neri slept in his Lordship's chambers; but it was customary for servants . to sleep on the same `floor with their masters. ',l..64Leicester was con sidered an eccentric charaaeritt allege., He Used to shut himself 'Op in his room fora Week , together, and. saw no one ; instead of a purple 'goWn, I,;hich No lalemen generally 'wore; he wore a .pink one he dressed his hair etTeminately,' and was caflt,-d Mi s s Leicester, Lady (Manley, &c. - in derision. Matt) , Gentle Men in the College, however, a ore, like ladies. He admitted that notoridus reports, accusing Lord Leicester of infamous and unnatural 'Oriniei, were prevalent in College : he did not'believe them. He heard reporti of others also. Lord L-icester gave some concerts, 'at which' Most Of the Nobility, and many of the . seniprs of the college attended. Neri was a musical charatler • his Lordship and he ofton plavedduets together. ' Neri played on the guitar. ' Ru4ignat knew a per Son of the name 'of Murray ; he lodged with her One year, Lord Lei cester often visited him, and at onetime When he was sick expressed regret at it, and advised hitn to get good advice—Murray was not Musical. H.'BOulter was Lord Leicbster's tutor at College. Thecause assigned tor his Lordship's ing College was, that he was going abroad: . Col. Rainstard, Ist 'Guards, deposed, that there was a man 'of the name of Frith, a private in his regi-; meat; that after a short absence from' the regiment, he found many men with gold waiChes, and Frith among the rest; when in plain dress also, they wore as good clothes as he did. Lord Leicester gave Fiith the watch. He heard that his Lordship used to walk arm in arm with the privates of his reginient in May and June 1806. tie had heard vile 'reports Of Lilt! Leicester tor the last threeyears.. Lord John Townsend said he Was Uncle (6 Lord Leicester. He was not on terms with hint'; . their quarrel was net personal ; he disliked his Lordship's conduct to his father; he did not know him after his marriage, but Lady T. sometimes visited at his house. The evidence was here closed; and Serjeant at 60tile length, eloquently addreised the Jury in fa vour of the Plaintiff. Sir JAMES Matisimn Commented at some length upon the u idence. He .went into an history of the press ih this country, from the time of its'first estab lishment to the abolition' of the otiice of lkeohcs . . The' liberty of the press was a term klindly used by many modern writers and speakers; it did not Mean the liberty of speaking political treason or private slander, bat it merely meant the liberty of speaking what it chose, liable to the correctional the laws of. the land. Undoubtedly in the present case a verdiCt must be found for the Plaintiff, but at the same time the damages were liable to mitigation, from the cir cumstances of the evidence; according to the judg ment of 'the Jury.—Verdig for the Plaintig, 10001. --Costs ) 40s. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, jura:a. tv00!)1 , 0111) 11. GENgUAL catusroraga ASHLEY. GARROW stated, this wasan action , to recover coMpensation by damages, ,for the Defendant's preferring an inuidment for an assault spies' the Plaintiff's wife, without any assault having taken place. He, Mr. G. had taken a vast deal of.pains, in searching the Army List, to find out what the Defendant was General of, , but without effect—his mind wandered to the Black General of Hayti, but, to his great surprise he found the General to be no less a man than a trumpeter, belonging to the Opera House, but as rich as many real, Generals, having a great nutnb4 of houses and other pro. pert y, in this city. The'Plaintitf was coachman to a Mr. Rickets, and, 'by his industry,. had saved as much. money as bouglit him a coach and horses, which he drOve as a job ; and his wife, aD indus trious woman, kept a little grocer's shop, in Brook street. The Defendant purchased this house, and .. wanted .tit:.tit:turn the Plaintiff out, alt hough he had, a lease for ~..yeti. years, The Defendant publicly said 'deft:rat:fled to have the - Plaintiff'' out of ..the house or ruin him; this he had done. On ti4,4l2sth of Juoohe went,so the Plaintiff's. house, .w hose wife was scrubbing the fluor on her knees • he saluted her U 11,1), Ot such as i.e (Mr. G.) would yet Inarie use of; hearing . it from the Witnesses would be more than sufficient, as it was such lan guage as never ought to be made use'ot by man. M rs. Woodford requested he would !emit; the hone, in as gentle a manner as an insulted woman could ;' well knowing the vindidive spirit of this trutnpeier, who before persecuted her, by bringing an eieuttnent, in which he tali , :o serving not,ce fur double rent.; inakingtletnandslor rent tile instant it was clue; pat her on her guard. , The Defendant.finding he could not provoke her to commit any outrage, thought proper to cunceive that she had astmulted hint, and actuallyß went to ow-street Police-office, and itsrdged hiS . lamination, that Mos. Wondfdrd had. r•tritek him with the. scrubbing-brush, and a warrint was - granted against her. It came on to 1,3 e beard be fore a Magistrate, who was Most competent and . most attentive to his duty ; a man who was res peeled by all conditions, and who would sift to the very bottom of the 'case (or its faits, he rue.ent Mr. Graham ; who on hearing the charge; and ex amining* the. parties, dismissed it, but not without passing that censure on the General, whiCh he so justly deserved. The Defendant was not yet siitis fied, bitt he inortOged his conscience to give way to f his Malignity and carry _that threat into execution which he had so often- made, that he would rain those people. He preSented an indiament to the Grand Jury; and they fohnd a Bill for this pretended assault. The Learned Counsel had not a doubt but he gave sufficient evidence before them to warrant it. He wished here to impreSs on the Jury, that it was not to the Grand Jury at the Sessions, bet to the Grand Jury sworn in at 'that Court. They might have 'heard of the, expressiop, .!‘ I will. put you in the Crown Office ;" that is, if 'the person who cart bed it into execution was a rich man, he ,was sure of ruining the pour man, for the expellees ',were heavy indeed ; but this General Trumpeter took Care that he would not cony into Court to be cross-examined beforea Jury ; when the indiOrnent came.on to be tried, the I, ) ,rosecutor.was 'nOt to tie found. If' she had. come to him, and asked 'knit for his lidviCe, .it should have been, employ no Counsel, for his Lordship Will see into the villainy of the pi-osecution, and hecoine himself y - our Coun sel. Tins would have been his, 'advice, if thepe . fendant had dared to come forward ; but fid was too well convinced of the, oppressive patt he had taken, and well' knetv the Court would gise hint that kind of ehasliiement he so richly deserted.— +le concluded 14 otiserving; Chit tie Defendant had 'gained his' object, for the Natoli& and hit - family were nearly ruined, and nothing but their verdict • could: save them from being totally so. fie then proceeded to call his Witnesses.
